My salon - 11-05-08, 11:27 PM

I aint opened my place yet, im still at stage of deciding what to call it! But i did have in mind "Fancy Fingers" what do u's think? I was once called this by a relative cause i had just done my nails! Thought it was good name for salon!!

if you had to name a nail salon (or if you have already) - what would you call it?

Tell me the name and how/why you chose it

I bet there's some really great names out there that I've still not come across...

im in the process of choosing a name myself, rapidly running out of time. My nail bar is to be above a hair salon, called BB's hair design. I have a small window about a meter in width and little more in height in which to display a name. Any idea's? Thought about 'Top
Ten'. Quite liked Urban Nails. Can't get any longer than 4 or 5 letters across. Choose in haste repent at leisure my nan would say. All suggestions would be welcome. X

Mine is Puttin On The Nails. My husband and I were in the car for about an hour, and I kept on him to help me come up with a name for my salon. He was the one who said- Puttin On the Ritz! And then we both yelled out Puttin On The Nails! I said [ thats what I do!, Put on the nails!] So that is my story. My name says what I do!

I've named mine 'Nail Heaven' but since naming the business have added to my list of treatments with spraytanning and waxing, so think I might change to Nail and Body Heaven !

Mine is going to be Tayla Made. As my youngest daughter who is 4 is Tayla (pronounced Taylor) and a while ago she was painting some nail tips and when I was showing her dad I said and these are what Tayla Made. Ta Da there is was the name. My eldest Chelsy is not too chuffed though.

If i ever have my own salon i would love to call it DiamondZnails.

I know alot of nail shops are called Diamond Nails, but this name feels perfect for me because everyone tells me i have expensive taste and they use to call me little diamond when i was younger so it has a very personal touch to it and when ever i try to think of other names they just don't feel or sound right to me.

Plus Diamonds are shiny, valued as a precious gem, I'm sure people would love to have one, you can get all different types and styles just like nails, their flawless or almost flawless.

So DiamondZnails it is lol

And i love all the names everyone has come up with, all very imaginative. . unlike mine

hehe

I named mine 'Arabella'

It actually comes fom an Alexander Pope poem, the rape of the lock!

There was a character called Arabella...I think the quote is 'Oh to dress all day and dance all night!'

Lol.

when i was mobile i was called

"fingersntoez" then i changed it to "hardasnails"

fingerzntoez - cos thats what i did - everything fingersntoes, then when i changed it to hardasnails, that was because the enhancements were living it up to the rep of hardasnails - sorted - the "hardasnails" actually came about from a client -she said to me one day - you know what glyn, these buggers may be thin, but they hard as nails -

like a name change, actually changed any thing
